Praha!

So I finally made some friends and went with them to Prague for the weekend! We left Friday night at around 11 pm. We were supposed to leave a bit earlier (like at 10 pm) but they were late and stuff. It sucked since it was so cold outside but oh well. So the bus ride was about 7 hrs. since it made stops in Berlin and Dresden, and we arrived in Prague at about 5 in the morning.

The first day we spent mostly wandering around and seeing the sights, checking out museums and places and whatnots. And, that's also what we did the next day. On the first night we found a place to get Czech food (which is not surprisingly a lot like German food,) and on the second night we ended up eating Chinese. And a note, Chinese restaurants seem to be the same everywhere! Seriously...

As for the hostel, what an enormous step outside my comfort zone... so we booked a 6-bed room, since we had 6 people. Makes sense? Obviously not... So turns out it was a 6-bunkbed mixed room. So we had to share the room with 6 other guys and girls. Some notable members were two girls from UCLA and a Spanish guy with a really high pitched voice. Anyway, I was just glad that at least the showers were partitioned off.

We ended the trip by hanging out in the commons area of the hostel we stayed at until it was time to go to our bus (which was around 12 am.)

Ok, picture time! That's what you really want, isn't it? Here you go:
Weekend in Praha

And this concludes my thoughts on my Prague trip, or maybe I'll post more pictures as they become available to me, who knows...

So, yeah, Chinese food sucked in Japan, which was weird. Secondly, when we did the hostel in Japan, it was 16 people in a room...me, 14 shirtless guys, and Beally with a shirt.
